HCLTech Associate Technical Consultant salaries in Chennai

Likes

The Company is open to new innovation, and readily adopts new technological changes. I love the fact that I am a part of a team that markets reliable, high quality services base. as a result, I get to travel abroad. But on-site travel is completely dependent on the project and client location. the another good part is that my colleges comes from various part of the country and different cultural background and we work in a happily collaboration.

Dislikes

Growth is decent but, compensation is a bit slow.

Likes

1. Job security. 2. Good and cheap Medical insurance. 3. Appraisal - Don't expect, you might get lesser salary due to re-arrangement of perks saying changing due to market conditions. 4. You won't get any shift allowance even if you are working IN NIGHT SHIFTS.

Dislikes

1. Work culture 2. Senior Managers don't pay heed to any queries/requests. 3. If you are good in fighting with management then you might get things like promotion/salary hike. 4. Supervisor's won't allow you to upskill, you won't get approvals for track/technology changes easily unless you fight. 5. Holidays - forget it. They'll force you not to take holidays whether it's client holidays or Indian holidays- reason they will never alligned required resources so you won't be able to take leaves or holidays due to cost savings. 6. HR role is negligible as they work like puppets of project managers.

a good management gives good results. I like most of the things in HCL. 20kms to my home and flexible hours but the wrong person to manage project ruin everything.

Dislikes

No hike, no early release, Hcl does not follow the policies but we need to follow the policies. zero health benefits. worst project management. Variable pays are worst of all these negative points. Helping an employee to resolve an issue is hardest part. refering own people to projects. Healthy hiring but the bench strength is bigger than what they need.

Dislikes

1. Salary & appraisal: They will not increase the salary for more than 2.8-3 years. Fake promises to increase salaries and hike. No extra money for OT also. And also they are deducting variable pays every months without any reason (there is court case against HCL for that, you can read article on internet also). 2. Work life balance: In one word disgusting. We are working from morning 9 to late nights 9:30 average daily even one Saturday and Sundays. 3. Company culture: Fake promises and fake hike news they spread, and even after 2.8 years they are not releasing hike letters. 4. Work satisfaction: No matter how hard you work they will not happy and they will give more work to you. Senior managements are going home after 3:30 / 4:00pm but normal employees have to work till nights. 5. Overall: DONT JOIN THIS COMPANY.

Dislikes

...l of a person working at HCL. Appraisal cycles are always delayed and postponed. Moreover they also deduct your salary on name on EPB monthly even after you got 9/10 rating.
